Subject: more garbled documentation in uniform arrays
Date: Fri, 9 Jan 2004 12:38:02 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <200401091738.i09Hc2MI016344@pc18.math.umbc.edu> (raw)

Version: guile--1.6.4
  Guile reference manual: both "info" and TeX formats:
    In the section titled "Conventional Arrays"
    (This is Section 19.6.1 in my printout)

Essentially all items listed in this section need a good overhaul.

For instance, in the description of array-set! we read:

(Cut-and-paste from the info document follows:)

 - Scheme Procedure: array-set! v obj . args
 - Scheme Procedure: uniform-array-set1! v obj args
 - C Function: scm_array_set_x (v, obj, args)
     Set the element at the `(index1, index2)' element in ARRAY to
     NEW-VALUE.  The value returned by array-set! is unspecified.

The terms used in the description bear no similarity to arguments given
in the prototype.
